        Bury the man. When the law changes then you can move him closer.

        I understand grief and I know love of family. But we can't change laws to fit each individual. If the state of this valiant warriors birth or home were to provide a spot in a state cemetery for a non state resident letting a longtime resident go without I believe the family may
